Established in 2013, the Sharon S. Keller Chronic Pain Research Grant is intended to fund research to promote a more comprehensive approach to the management of chronic pain. The Keller Grant was established by private investor David Keller in memory of his wife, who died in 2011 after 25 years of battling cancer, rheumatoid arthritis, chronic musculoskeletal pain, and the side effects of pain medications. The emphasis of the award is on investigating noninvasive, nonpharmacologic interventions with favorable side effect profiles to improve chronic pain management.
APS will no longer be administering the Sharon S. Keller Chronic Pain Research Grant. Thank you to the Grant family and all of our worthy recipients for advancing the field of pain research.
